Ama: *fusses with Ariel's locks* I think a good colour stripper should take out most of it :(
Alad: ::) Three people just went missing and all you can think about is this... VILLAIN'S hair?
Ariel: You say villain like it's a bad thing.
Arwen: Leave his hair alone. He's Fifth right now, and everyone knows Fifth has black hair :nod:
Ama: :"( But it was so PRETTY before!
Ariel: I know, wasn't it?
Rushton: I dunno. I think it looks better this way. It's like you're trying to look more like me... only failing.
Ariel: ":( !!! *To Arwen* You see what you've done? Do you know how this is going to affect my reputation?
Arwen: :-"
Ama: :"(
Alad: ::) *yawns* :|
FL: Wow, there's a lot of A-names around here, aren't there?

Min: Wow, that was chaotic. And just when we were getting into the swing of a song.
Avialle: A very noisy song.
Reuvan: [act]from floor[/act] Perhaps he didn't like your singing?
Min & Firefall: :(
Doctor: Chaos, mystery, drama, wood paneling...now this really is my kind of party! Do you want me to --[act]whipping out the sonic screwdriver[/act]
Firefall: Oh, no no, don't trouble yourself. You're our guest. I'm sure things will sort themselves out...[act]trails off and watches as Malik strides by and begins to pull aside curtains, check under tablecloths, etc - with vigor[/act]
Avialle: Wow - he really must have formed an attachment to your date, Firefall. He seems almost worried.
Min: Or he just wants the prize?
Firefall: :| ...which reminds me. What aren't you two looking?
Min: Why aren't you?
Firefall: I'm hosting!
Min: So you know where they are?
Doctor: I know where they are [act]smug[/act]
Avialle: Really??
Firefall: [act]pfft[/act] No you don't.
Doctor: [act]puts hands back behind head, lies down properly and continues to look smug[/act]
Reuvan: Will you tell me where they are?
Doctor: Sure! [act]flips psychic paper in Reuvan's direction[/act]
[act]Min, Avialle and Firefall pause/watch in anticipation[/act]
Reuvan: ...it's er...talking about sharks..?
Avialle: [act]facepalm[/act]
Min: [act]turning back to Firefall[/act] But you do?
Firefall: ...[act]with a sideways look at Malik, still manically drawing aside curtains[/act] Shush.
Avialle: Shush what? [act]slightly louder[/act] That you happen to already know what's happened to them?
Firefall: Argh! [act]lies on floor between the Doctor and Reuvan[/act]
Doctor: [act]re-pocketing psychic paper[/act] Glad you could join us.
Min: Ugh! Ok, Reuvan - or somebody - it's about time you told us what you're doing down there!
Reuvan: Isn't it obvious?
Min & Avialle: NO!
Firefall: You know, it all makes sense now...[act]puts hands behind head, lies back and looks serenely at the roof[/act]
Malik: [act]runs past with a hastily-made axe and heads for the sideboards[/act] He's in the walls!
[act]with a speed previously thought not possible from a heavy, metal penguin, the nearest s*c*p disarms Malik, returns to it's post, crushes the axe into a tiny cube and leaves Malik stopped in his tracks, blinking[/act]
Doctor: [act]raising his head slightly and looks over his chest to see what's going on[/act] [act]points[/act] Something just happened--
Firefall: [act]sing-song voice[/act] Can't see it, can't hear it.

Meanwhile.....
[act]Jak notices Malik searching the room[/act]
Jak- Hey, are you looking for the dates? I bet i could help! We could work together!
Malik- stupid misfit.
Jak- ":(
Malik- ok fine! You go and look in the bar! hey we should interview people, no doubt someone stole them away just to foil my plans!
Jak- sure [act]heads to the bar[/act]
Malik- [act]thinks[/act] maybe i should practice my hypnotism on him....
Smuffy: If only we could have Ariel back the way he was. :-/
Random: ???
Smuffy: What? I like Ariel, too! Just...not as much as some other people... |:|
Ariel: Crazy talk. Who could possibly be more attractive than me?
Smuffy: You know, it's amazing that you are still so good-looking. Usually, people who were pretty when they were younger grow up to be...er...not as pretty as they were before...Take Malfoy, for example. He IS a lot like you. I wonder when you your good looks vanish? *keeps an eye on her watch* ~:|
Ama: Ludicrous. Ariel shall be pretty for ever and ever and ever and ever and ever...

Malik: [act]eyes Arwen and Elspeth moodily, thinking of the conspiratorial whispers he himself was engaged in not so long ago[/act]
YellowEyes: [act]to Avialle, on her way out[/act] Your date is looking rather upset about something.
Avialle: Really? :D
YellowEyes: ...That wasn't quite the reaction I was expecting.
Avialle: Ah, maybe you can't tell because of the costume. My date is Malik.
YellowEyes: Ahhh. Then yes, that is a good thing. :D [act]continues out the door[/act]
Malik: As soon as I find my accomplice, you'll both be sorry! [act]taps cautiously at the walls, keeping an eye out for s*c*p[/act]
[act]Firefall, Reuvan, and the Doctor are still on the floor with their hands behind their heads[/act]
Firefall: [act]pensively[/act] And until now, I never really realised what it all meant. Life, the universe, everything.
Doctor: Oh, you should have asked. I've got the pamphlet. Explains everything.
Reuvan: Ooh, can I see?
Doctor: [act]rummages around in his pockets for a while, before handing Reuvan a shiny brochure[/act]
Reuvan: [act]opens it up[/act] All it has in here is the number "42" in giant letters.
Doctor: Ah, that must be the answer booklet. It comes separately. Drat, where did I put that pamphlet with the question? [act]continues to rummage[/act]
Avialle: [act]watching Malik[/act] I suppose I ought to do something about him, huh?
Min: Oh, I wouldn't worry. He's mostly harmless. [act]pauses, then shouts, apparently at the air[/act] Hey, don't drag me into your blatant referential puns!
Firefall: [act]to Avialle[/act] Oh, don't worry. The s*c*p will handle anything that comes up. In fact, there's no need to worry about anything ever again. [act]sighs happily and continues to gaze at the ceiling[/act]
Min: I'm beginning to think the roof is raining crystal dust into their nostrils, or something. :-/

Edward: Oh my gawwd, shwiny crwystals :D (L)
Firefall: Wait, Edward did you just say what I think you said in a high pitched voice?
Edward: [act]cough![/act] [act]cough![/act] [act]deeper voice[/act] No, sorry, I believe you must have misheard the lady over there sucking helium balloons [act]points[/act]
Firefall: [act]turns, looks[/act] but there's no ...
Edward: [act]smoulderig look[/act]Excuse my poor manners, but I forgot to introduce myself, I am Edward [act]takes Fireafall's hand and slightly bows[/act].
Firefall: But you said balloons, we didn't order any balloons, just think what Garth would do when he saw floating plast material...
Edward: [act] Smouldering look not working? How perplexing. This old boy is losing his touch [/act]
Smuffy: I need steaks, loooots of steaks |:|
Doctor: You know you're both quite right. Well almost, maybe, kinda...it's not crystal dust falling from the ceiling but a leak in your dimensional room. You know, just radioactive star dust and all that. Did your hire plan come with worm hole diverter or a black hole reverser by any chance? [act]notices Edward[/act] Oh wait a minute, I know what you are, yes I've come across your kind before.
Edward: Says the man with two hearts [act]tries to read the Doctors thoughts[/act] OUCH! [act]falls to the ground and collapses into the foetal position[/act]

Elspeth: Oh, well my date... *looks around* ??? where did Wraithlord go?
Smuffy: *pokes Edward experimentally to see if he's dead*
Ama: When he wakes up, Smuff-Smuff, you could just tell him how half the people here are also telepathic. That might put a damper on his self-importance :)

Zier: [act]enters the ballroom with Dameon's arm still linked through hers[/act] Wow, did that trip between rooms feel really long for you as well?
Dameon: It's hard to tell time when you're blind and in a cave, but yes.
Zier: I think in this case the cave is the main issue. For me, anyway. Uh, sorry. Again. [act]looks around and notices Firefall, Reuvan and the Doctor lying looking up at the ceiling surrounded by a few other Obernetters, and wanders over[/act] Hi everyone!
Everyone: Hi!
Reuvan: [act]still staring at the pamphlet[/act] The answer to everything is .... 42?
Firefall: Well, actually, it's the answer to life, the universe and everything.
The Doctor: Ah yes, here it is! [act]pulls a pamphlet out of one of his inner pockets, along with a banana. He hands the pamplet to Reuvan.[/act]
Reuvan: (reading aloud) "What is the answer to life, the universe and everything?" Oh. Okay. [act]looks at the Doctor[/act] What's that?
The Doctor: Banana. Always bring a banana to a party. Plus they're a good source of potassium.
Dameon: Sorry, but what is this banana?
Zier: Oh, I'm sorry. It's a fruit. It comes with a fairly thick skin, but you can peel it and eat it.
Dameon: Oh, do you cook them, like Katlyn does when she's making pies? [act]looks hopeful[/act]
Zier: You can, but not so much with pies - it's good with chocca. Like, uh, solid chocca.
Dameon: Oh wow, where do you get that?
Zier: Uh... [act]gets sidetracked[/act] Did you know that if you google the words "doctor" and "banana", the first three links are about the Doctor?

Firefall: [act]staring dreamily up at the ceiling[/act] It does help.
Edward: [act]staring up at the ceiling also, from his foetal position on the floor[/act] And it's shiny. :D
Min: Oi! That's my line!
Edward: [act]clambers slowly to his feet, looking soulful and repentant[/act] Please forgive me. I never meant to offend you.
Min: [act]snaps open parasol and holds it between them, obscuring Edward from her view[/act] Ohh, no you don't! Don't try that dazzling stuff on me!
Edward: Why does everybody here seem to know my tricks? [act]pauses for a moment[/act] Ah, a fictional character in someone else's world? You don't say?
Firefall: [act]wagging a finger at him from her intimidating post on the floor[/act] No mind-reading! Didn't you see the rules as you came in?
Zier: There are rules?
Avialle: At a Mystics' Ball?
Min: Since when?
Firefall: [act]gesturing vaguely towards the Ballroom entrance[/act] I'm sure we posted a sign somewhere.
[act]Curious, Zier tugs Dameon over to a previously unnoticed sign tucked away among the crystals, and reads out:[/act]
Rules for socialising in the Ballroom
No alcohol
No glitter
No use of telepathic abilities on other guests
No asking out the s*c*p. It's married
No tweaking of the dimensional vortex without written consent from the hostesses
No pre-90s dance moves
Ask us about our dimension plan!
Edward: That is blatant discrimination!
Zier: Well, to be fair, people don't like having their thoughts read.
Edward: I meant the one about the dance moves. How am I supposed to do the locomotion now?
Doctor: ...And yet there's nothing about inhaling toxic geological dust.
Firefall: It's a little in need of updating, yes.
Smuffy: [act]appears beside Edward and hisses[/act] Maybe it needs a no vampires rule, huh?
Edward: [act]clutches at head, still looking rather ill[/act] Between the impenetrable mind of the Timelord and the glares of the aspiring vampire hunter, I sense some hostility in this room.
Zier: [act]eying Smuffy[/act] Possibly a "no staking" rule wouldn't be amiss, either.

Ama: Oh... *realizes someone said something about no stalking* *inches closer to Ariel* I don't think it's necessary to have a no-stalker rule. Nobody on obernet has ever demonstrated such behaviour before |:|

Avialle: Besides, stalking's one of the great traditions of Obernet. :nod: Where would all the crazy fangirls go if they couldn't stalk people? They'd probably channel their fangirly-ness into eating chocolate or randomly assaulting passers-by... 8-| The world would be in mayhem!

Malik: [act]pops up suddenly[/act]
Avialle: [act]startled[/act] Oh, I thought you were off banging at walls and trying to hypnotise people...
Malik: [act]narrows eyes at her and then turns away pointedly, addressing the room at large[/act] Well, I was. But then I heard something about a 'plot'. Or it might have been a 'plan'. Anyway, I'm a little short of inspiration at the moment so I thought I may as well risk the unpleasantness of your company in order to steal your Master Plan and use it against you.
Ama: ... Do you usually reveal your entire evil plan before you have a chance to put it into action?
Malik: ... ~:|
Avialle: [act]looking around[/act] It must be the crystal dust affecting his mind. There seems to be a lot of it around lately. Either that or he's just stupid.
Malik: [act]thankfully didn't hear that last bit[/act] Yes, well, what's the plot and why wasn't I made aware of it?
Firefall: Could you be referring to our Dimension Plan?
Malik: ...Possibly. Does it involve the extermination of mutants in any way?
Firefall: Um... no.
Malik: I see. Well, I'm not interested. Some plotting partner you are. :| Call me when you've got something good. [act]goes off to search for Firefall's date again [/act]
